Brave UNEDITED REACTION (all access)

Ok, I really liked it. I liked that it showed that people don't ahve to be strong in the same ways. And that women can and do have different strength than men. Of course not accross the board. I just like the variety

Actually, Merida as a character annoys me so much, so I only enjoy the message, which is beautiful. Besides I dislike how she is marketed as a strong female character, which she is but all of her traits are considered masculine.

As a former teenage girl, one of the things I love about this movie is how "real" it feels. It's such a grounded film. There's magic, and fantasy, but the central conflict is very "human": a parent trying to prepare their child for their place in the world, and a child wanting to carve their own path in life. It's an argument almost every parent/child has had. It's something Pixar does so well, and it really helps ground their films emotionally. Disney makes amazing fantasy films. But if you look at the classic princess movies, for the most part, the central conflict, the big antagonist is something otherworldly or magical or just truly evil. Pixar took the concept of a fairy tale and grounded it in real human emotions and conflict.

I’m sure it will come back around!!! That’s so great! That’s why I love this movie, it’s never about family relationships and I like that

I absolutely LOVE this movie! And yes, this is very much a great example of the struggles between mothers and daughters. Its harder when the daughter is more attached, because they have to push that much harder to find themselves and their identity. Also if they are independent, like Merida was. My oldest daughter and I struggled a lot when she was young, she was very headstrong and independent (and quite frankly, a lot like me.) But as she grew older and was given more autonomy over her own life and I let go more and more, our relationship completely changed, and is really great now (she's 24). My youngest was the opposite, she was "mommy's girl" and she was a dream when she was young. Her teens have been more rocky, but I think that was her trying to distance herself more. She's 18 now, and we're doing pretty well now. Being a parent is so hard, because every child is different and will need different things at different stages, and its a constant work in progress. But its also the best thing ever!
